This is Tom. He is the one who was allegedly pepper sprayed tonight. He tried his best to agitate the crowd and attempted to start fights over “obstructing his freedom to walk”. He admitted to shoving a protester down the stairs “as hard as he could” multiple times on a twitch stream. The streamer and Tom proceeded to tell a story about a hammer like 50 times. The story changed each time but toward the end of the stream they came to the completely dramatic conclusion that “antifa tried to murder them” and “bash their skulls” with a hammer following the shove on the stairs. The streamer wore body cams both front and back facing throughout the night and has already filed a police report. Keep an eye out for Tom and his streamer friend. Tom says he plans to attend future protests in either black bloc or plain clothes. He hasn’t decided which is a better option yet.
